About this listen

A riveting tale of unfathomable success, great joy, deep pain, and redemption that can come only from above.

From a working-class background in North Carolina to a job as a cook and club singer in Nashville to his "overnight success" with his smash 1986 album Storms of Life - which launched the neotraditional movement in country music - Randy’s first three decades are a true rags-to-riches story.

But in 2009, this seemingly charmed life began a downward spiral. His marriage dissolved, he discovered that his finances had unraveled, and his struggles with anger led to alcohol abuse, public embarrassment, and even police arrest in 2012.

Then, just as he was putting his life back together, Randy suffered a devastating viral cardiomyopathy that led to a massive stroke that he was not expected to survive. Yet he not only survived but also learned to walk again and in 2016 accepted his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame by singing the hymn that explains his life today: "Amazing Grace".

Filled with never-before-told stories, Forever and Ever, Amen a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at dizzying success and the miraculous road to restoration.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Wonderful, and inspiring!

This was a totally awesome story. What made it all the more wonderful, was that it was a true story. The fact that God was always helping and pursuing Randy shone through. Having a disability myself, I could identify somewhat with the last part of the story, and even then, Randy didn’t give up. God was always with him, no matter what.
The Narration by Rory Feek was wonderful. I often forgot the story was being narrated, it sounded so real.
I didn’t get the PDF that came with this audio book as my screen reader doesn’t always read pdf’s very well, but listening to the little notes between chapters prompted me to google Rory and i see he has narrated some other books.

This book moved me, made me smile, and left me feeling uplifted and inspired to hold on to God no matter how tough things get.

Would highly recommend.
